AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 14,837 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of brake failures and advisories, combined with very low usage, makes it a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle has covered only 14,837 miles in 15 years, averaging just 4,662 miles per year, significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles annually.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Dec 2025): Offside Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2018-12-12 (test 1) and 2019-12-04 (test 1) indicates severe neglect.
- Recurring brake system advisories (2018, 2024, 2025) and failures (2018, 2019, 2025) point to a systemic weakness.
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,662 miles/yr) suggests prolonged periods of inactivity, which can be hard on components.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 12/2026, indicating it currently meets basic roadworthiness standards.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering is present in the MOT history.
- The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
- The car has a consistent, albeit low, mileage history with no suspicious gaps or spikes.
